REPLACE

Form: 4 or W4
REPLACE is used to search the file for a specified string and replace it with
a second string. Searching starts from the cursor position and continues to
the end of the file. To search the whole file, move to the start first (by using
the FILE START command).
REPLACE displays the prompt Find>, followed by the previous search
string if you have already used REPLACE or FIND. Type or edit the text to
look for (up to 50 characters), and press E. Be exact, as REPLACE will
only find an exact match (including use of spaces).
Normally, REPLACE will consider capital and small letters as different, but
you can change this by using the IGNORE option in the ED command, or by
using the SET command to select case-ignore. If the text is split over the
end of a screen line REPLACE will still find it correctly.
REPLACE then prompts for the replacement text with Replace>, followed
by the previous replace string if you have already used REPLACE. Type or
edit the string (up to 50 characters) and press E to begin searching.
While searching is in progress, Searching... will be displayed on the
function line. If an exact match is found then the found string is replaced by
the replacement string cursor and the cursor is moved to its first character.
If no match is found, Replace failed... is displayed on the function
line and the cursor remains where it was.
To halt the search, press C. To search without replacing, use the FIND
command.
